How our party fish and chip van works in East Meon
We park on the drive or a firm spot near the party, with the hatch facing your guests. Typical bookings include retirement celebrations and garden get-togethers, serving haddock and chips, curry sauce and gravy.
Near East Meon, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we will handle the rest. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Hosting a chip van party in East Meon
East Meon is about 4 miles west of Petersfield, in Hampshire. We cover East Meon as standard, so all we need is your date, a parking spot and a time to serve. We serve all 683 towns and villages in Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages. We serve events right across the region, from East Meon to Southampton (about 17 miles away).
A christening at Church of All Saints followed by fish and chips on the drive is a simple, popular plan. The South Downs National Park is within about 5 miles of East Meon, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.
Anywhere in GU32, we can fry fresh for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean a party at a home on High Street, Chapel Street and Temple Lane or the roads around them, as long as there’s somewhere for the van. If your venue is just outside East Meon, we also cover Clanfield (4 miles south), Catherington (5 miles south), Hambledon (5 miles south-west), Lovedean (6 miles south) and Horndean (6 miles south). We also serve nearby towns such as Winchester (13 miles west), Gosport (14 miles south), Havant (9 miles south), Eastleigh (14 miles west), Fareham (12 miles south-west) and Chandler's Ford (15 miles west).

Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.

What happens on the day
We do not cook ahead. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. For a late-May party in East Meon, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it is about 9:20pm. If the party runs past dark, the queue and the path to the van need light.
